JOIN US FOR THE U.S. COTTON ACADEMY FOR BRANDS AND RETAILERS in MERIDA, MEXICO!
The U.S. Cotton Academy for Brands and Retailers is an invitation-only event. We want to invite you to learn more about U.S. cotton, the importance of choosing the right fibre for your products, its processing and the added value that using U.S. cotton in your supply chain can have.
We are planning for a two and half days comprehensive seminar that will provide opportunities for in-depth learning and interactions. The speakers will include a Professor of Sustainable Textile Manufacturing of The University of Leeds and a U.S. cotton grower, as well as other cotton experts, to share all their knowledge and insights from the field.
